  I have a '96 4X4 V6 5spd that is currently driven
about 75% highway and I consistently run about 19mpg.
My truck has 101,000 miles and I usually run mid-grade
or premium and when I put the Bosch Plat+4's in I was
hoping to finally break 20 mpg, but then gas went out
of sight, so I started running 87, but I still stayed
in the mid-19's, when before it would drop to 17-18
when I ran 87 octane. So maybe things will level out
and I will finally break 20mpg, then my luck something
probably will break, sure hope not!jkp
